Posted another update with more fixes. The plan is one more update adding a some minor new features and then I will begin the UI rework. That is going to be a large task so I'll do another post with a bit more detail around the time I start working on it.

-Fixed issue with scanner not reading folders with .. in the folder name
-Fixed issue where the next track info would not correctly update in now playing / lockscreen

Its only been 2 weeks since the last update but this update is definitely significant. Many long requested features have finally been added. The plan moving forward is one more update for some miscellaneous features and fixes and then I plan on doing the UI overhaul + tablet enhancements. That update is going to take awhile, most like a few months but I plan on doing some bug fix releases during that period if issues happen to pop up.

Screenshots:

-Added option to show/hide file stats in the file browser
-Added option to require a second press of the back button to exit gmmp. Prefs -> General -> Double Back To Exit
